4 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley 5.2-4 Trigonometric Functions Let (x, y) be a point other the origin on the terminal side of an angle  in standard position. The distance from the point to the origin is

5 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-5 5.2-5 Trigonometric Functions The six trigonometric functions of θ are defined as follows:

6 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-6 5.2-6 The terminal side of angle  in standard position passes through the point (8, 15). Find the values of the six trigonometric functions of angle . Example 1 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE

7 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-7 5.2-7 Example 1 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE (continued)

8 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-8 5.2-8 The terminal side of angle  in standard position passes through the point (–3, –4). Find the values of the six trigonometric functions of angle . Example 2 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE

9 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-9 5.2-9 Example 2 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE (continued) Use the definitions of the trigonometric functions.

10 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-10 5.2-10 Example 3 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE We can use any point on the terminal side of  to find the trigonometric function values. Choose x = 2. Find the six trigonometric function values of the angle θ in standard position, if the terminal side of θ is defined by x + 2y = 0, x ≥ 0.

11 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-11 5.2-11 The point (2, –1) lies on the terminal side, and the corresponding value of r is Example 3 FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF AN ANGLE (continued) Multiply by to rationalize the denominators.

12 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-12 5.2-12 Example 4(a) FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF QUADRANTAL ANGLES The terminal side passes through (0, 1). So x = 0, y = 1, and r = 1. undefined Find the values of the six trigonometric functions for an angle of 90°.

13 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-13 5.2-13 Example 4(b) FINDING FUNCTION VALUES OF QUADRANTAL ANGLES x = –3, y = 0, and r = 3. undefined Find the values of the six trigonometric functions for an angle θ in standard position with terminal side through (–3, 0).

14 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-14 5.2-14 Undefined Function Values If the terminal side of a quadrantal angle lies along the y-axis, then the tangent and secant functions are undefined. If the terminal side of a quadrantal angle lies along the x-axis, then the cotangent and cosecant functions are undefined.

16 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley 5.2-16 Using a Calculator A calculator in degree mode returns the correct values for sin 90° and cos 90°. The second screen shows an ERROR message for tan 90° because 90° is not in the domain of the tangent function.

17 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-17 5.2-17 Caution One of the most common errors involving calculators in trigonometry occurs when the calculator is set for radian measure, rather than degree measure.

18 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-18 5.2-18 Reciprocal Identities For all angles θ for which both functions are defined,

19 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-19 5.2-19 Example 5(a) USING THE RECIPROCAL IDENTITIES Since cos θ is the reciprocal of sec θ,

20 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-20 5.2-20 Example 5(b) USING THE RECIPROCAL IDENTITIES Since sin θ is the reciprocal of csc θ, Rationalize the denominator.

23 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-23 5.2-23 Identify the quadrant (or quadrants) of any angle  that satisfies the given conditions. Example 6 IDENTIFYING THE QUADRANT OF AN ANGLE (a) sin  > 0, tan  < 0. Since sin  > 0 in quadrants I and II, and tan  < 0 in quadrants II and IV, both conditions are met only in quadrant II. (b) cos  < 0, sec  < 0 The cosine and secant functions are both negative in quadrants II and III, so  could be in either of these two quadrants.

24 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-24 5.2-24 Ranges of Trigonometric Functions

25 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-25 5.2-25 Decide whether each statement is possible or impossible. Example 7 DECIDING WHETHER A VALUE IS IN THE RANGE OF A TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTION (a) sin θ = 2.5 (b) tan θ = 110.47 Impossible Possible (c) sec θ =.6Impossible

26 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-26 5.2-26 Pythagorean Identities For all angles θ for which the function values are defined,

27 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-27 5.2-27 Quotient Identities For all angles θ for which the denominators are not zero,

28 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-28 5.2-28 Example 8 FINDING OTHER FUNCTION VALUES GIVEN ONE VALUE AND THE QUADRANT Find sin θ and cos θ, given that and θ is in quadrant III. Since θ is in quadrant III, both sin θ and cos θ are negative.

29 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-29 5.2-29 Caution It is incorrect to say that sin θ = –4 and cos θ = –3, since both sin θ and cos θ must be in the interval [–1, 1]. Example 8 FINDING OTHER FUNCTION VALUES GIVEN ONE VALUE AND THE QUADRANT (continued)

30 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-30 5.2-30 Example 8 FINDING OTHER FUNCTION VALUES GIVEN ONE VALUE AND THE QUADRANT (continued) Use the identity to find sec θ. Then use the reciprocal identity to find cos θ. Choose the negative square root since sec θ <0 for θ in quadrant III. Secant and cosine are reciprocals.

31 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-31 5.2-31 Example 8 FINDING OTHER FUNCTION VALUES GIVEN ONE VALUE AND THE QUADRANT (continued) Choose the negative square root since sin θ <0 for θ in quadrant III.

32 Copyright © 2009 Pearson Addison-Wesley1.1-32 5.2-32 Example 8 FINDING OTHER FUNCTION VALUES GIVEN ONE VALUE AND THE QUADRANT (continued) This example can also be worked by drawing θ in standard position in quadrant III, finding r to be 5, and then using the definitions of sin θ and cos θ in terms of x, y, and r.
